To my fellow flour rangers: I'm grateful for the follows but there are rules in this space.
1) Respect Black women.
2) Homophobia, transphobia, & antisemitism are unacceptable.
3) Show up in Nov with as many other ⚪ people as you can bring to the polls.
Let's do this for MVP.
You are entitled to your personal religious beliefs. I'm entitled to a government that is separated from your personal religious beliefs, ESPECIALLY when it interferes with what I can do with my own body.
Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.
Story time!
I used to have a stuffed hippo I got from Build-A-Bear.
I named her HIPAA & when people asked me how I came up with the name I said I couldn't tell them.
If you get this & we aren't following each other comment below so I can fix that.
@RonFilipkowski
He should remind himself to stay away from press coverage of his own trial. Hard to be impartial if you're watching clips from CNN and getting upset in the courtroom.
A fundamental misstep with all media outlets is asking a candidate IF they will accept the results of an election. You've planted that thought in their minds as an option.
The media didn't make the monsters, but they love watching them scare the kids.
Meghan McCain is reportedly quitting her job at The View. I'm not surprised, but I'm happy for Whoopi & Joy. Those poor women were about to have permanent nerve damage from all the eye rolling they did anytime Meghan opened her mouth.
Bye bye snowflake! ❄️❄️
I'm always HAPPY to acknowledge when I'm wrong. I'd been under the assumption that Krysten Sinema & Joe Manchin were bought & paid for by the Koch brothers.
It was Exxon, I'm glad I cleared that up.
I feel better now.
Republicans threatening to take back their votes on the bipartisan infrastructure bill is so damn predictable I could have already written a book about it by now.
I'm emotionally spent & this is almost identical to how I felt before the election in 2020. California has been my home my entire life & I'm scared that it's slipping through my fingers.
If you're a California resident, please vote no on the recall.
#VoteNoOnTheRecall
Dan Crenshaw has an opinion on the perceived patriotism of Olympic athletes. In my eyes he lost his credibility when he riled up his base about a stolen election.
FYI: He & 125 House Republicans backed the TX brief which sought to get results from GA, MI, PA, & WI disregarded.
We need to stop normalizing the pattern from the prev admin. Coming out 6-12 mo. later w/ a tell all book isn't acceptable. They should've done something when they had an opportunity to fix it.
People like Dr. Birx, Bill Barr, & John Bolton need to stop getting media attention.
I "came out" last June on social media. I've been out to friends and family since high school. This clip from Schitt's Creek is one of my favorites. It has also helped me come to terms with my sexuality.
To my LGBTQ+ community I'm sad now but we have the power to make it better.
Dianne Feinstein didn't vote today. She hasn't had a recorded vote since September 14th. She's missed 20 consecutive votes. "They needed 60 votes" is NOT a good reason why she didn't vote.
If she isn't well, the public that elected her has a right to know.
For the last 18 months, the only thing I had was my Twitter fam. You all supported & encouraged me to grow-so I have some big news.
I’m going back to school so I can work in public service. I want to put my energy into making the world better. I couldn’t have done it w/o you.💙
In 2020 Bernie was the highest Senate recipient of pharmaceutical dollars. In all his years in the Senate he's renamed post offices and done fuck all for more affordable healthcare.
He's a fraud.
Blaming the DNC for “poor messaging” is just as ridiculous as blaming the President for high gas prices.
If people actually paid attention they'd see the messaging is there & the media has been dropping the ball covering it.
Remember last summer when
@Toyota
had a recall because they had malfunctioning brakes on a range of 4 years worth of Prius'?
I think the PR department is dreaming about those days right now.
Madison Cawthorn getting fact checked by Twitter while speaking on the House floor is a treat I'll be enjoying for years to come.
It's also what happens when you hire a friend to work in your office with zero government experience.
Asking Joe Manchin to hold Republicans in the Senate to the same standards as he does to the Democrats is laughable.
He has no standards for the Republicans.
The only named source in the article is an aid from Biden's Senate days who wrote a book about him in 2012. He also retweets anti-Biden & vaccine conspiracy theory BS from RFK Jr.
Axios doesn't seem to give a fuck about real journalism & Alex is already playing the victim.
MTG said in a press conference today, "You don't have to read, you don't have to know anything to see the truth that's happening every single day at the southern border."
I'm have a feeling she never read The Green New Deal.
That was 14 pages of reading she didn't need to do.
An interesting point was made & as a life long California resident I'll just ask.
Should we send the invoice for $276 million to Larry Elder directly or to the the CA GOP?
After being asked about Critical Race Theory, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley delivers an answer every American should watch.
Seen here two "journalists", one from the NYT and the other from MSNBC collectively forgetting about all the mass shootings that have happened in Colorado. (There's an entire Wikipedia page) There was also very notably a major shooting in a fucking movie theater.
Morons.
The people saying that their HIPAA rights are being violated because someone wants to know your vaccination status, DO NOT understand what it means.
They are likely the same people who think it's spelled HIPPA & aren't vaccinated.
FYI 👇👇👇
This is hilarious coming from Tom Cotton who proposed a $10 federal minimum wage when his home state of AR already had an $11 minimum wage. Yeah Tom 𝘥𝘦𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘺 understands most American people. 🙄🤦🏻♀️
Why are we still talking about Paul Ryan?
He made it ABUNDANTLY clear he couldn't legislate after his botched attempt at replacing the ACA.
He's on the board at Fox because that's what he's good at, collecting a paycheck while being a silent observer to chaos.
I'm getting really fucking tired of arguing with people who don't know the difference between Gaza and the West Bank.
Israel hasn't occupied Gaza since 2005.

If anyone on Fox complains about the lack of patriotism of US Olympians I think we should remind them Tucker Carlson is broadcasting his show this week from Hungary.
He also met & did a photo op with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.
@RonFilipkowski
1) The TSA & no fly list has existed for years prior to this "infringement" to your rights.
2) I'm betting Madison can't even spell apartheid, let alone use it appropriately in a sentence.
Chris Murphy's descent into madness after passing historic gun control legislation last year has been so fucking bizzare to see.
He's not right but at this point I'm over his fuckery. His thread today further solidified he's not the same guy. I wish him luck in 2024.
The U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee votes 11-10 to advance the nomination of Ana de Alba for the Ninth Circuit, who Republican senators have attacked for rulings in two criminal cases she's overseen while on the Eastern District of California bench.
It's mind numbing watching people tag Jamie Harrison in their long rambling posts about how the DNC isn't doing enough & they do it while complaining about things the DNC has never done or isn't responsible for. What's impressive is how often he responds to these people.

All the gun owners on Twitter that have been dragging Marjorie Taylor Greene for a full 24 hours because of her misuse of a large gun in her campaign ad has made me so happy.
So now the evidence that proved Jordan's inquiry was submitted in time doesn't even matter? WTAF!
This is absolutely ridiculous, It's Jordan Chiles' medal.
Marsha Blackburn & Eleanor McCullen haven't had a menstrual cycle in my entire lifetime & are advocating for pregnant people to not to be able to make their own healthcare decisions. I'm going to explode.
Liz Cheney's still a member of the GOP. The same party that stands behind voter suppression measures that were created in response to a lie. She doesn't believe there's a connection to the "stolen election".
Don't be fooled, she has ambitions beyond the 3rd ranking Republican.
I trust MVP's judgement but I can't say I'm not exhausted after fending off attacks against Shapiro for 2 weeks.
He wasn't even my preference for VP. Some of the Non-Jews out there don't totally understand is what this has been like for Jewish people.
We defend our own.
When John Cornyn complains about
@VP
not going to the border, he's really complaining to distract from his abysmal record in the Senate. He hasn't been able to get any tangible immigration laws passed since he was elected in 2002.
He's an obstructionist feigning outrage.
Last time they did polling for candidates in the recall election, Caitlyn Jenner was polling at 6% in CA.
That's obviously disappointing but she can at least she can say she's polling better than Andrew Giuliani is in NY.
Officer Fanone is a hero & Kevin McCarthy continues to brush him off. He's been severely injured protecting their workplace from people who could have killed them both.
PTSD & a TBI is hard enough, why can't they give him some real solutions?
Conor Lamb gets endorsements from people & organizations in Pennsylvania.
John Fetterman gets endorsements from out of state blue checks on Twitter.
Nothing is over until all the votes are counted.
Mel Gibson must have a fantastic publicist because this is the most watered down bullshit I've seen in a minute.
He's antisemitic, racist, and a misogynist. Newsweek is a fucking mess.
DiFi is 3 months older than Chuck Grassley.
Both have missed time and votes. Grassley was just re-elected for another 6 year term while DiFi is retiring at the end of hers.
Show me the people demanding Grassley resign or ☠️ for convenience, I'll wait. 🧐🤨
Tucker Carlson never ceases to suprise me, today it's trivializing AOC's fear of being raped by the mob of insurrectionists. He said, "get a therapist honey".
As a trauma survivor myself, I have two words for Tucker & they aren't happy birthday.
